Comments for How to Finish Necklace or Bracelet Ends

How can I end a wire beaded necklace so you do not see the crimping bead?

I am using agate in 8, 10 and 12 mm beads for a strand approximately 36 -45 inches long. I do not want anyone to see where it ended. I do not want to use a crimp cover. I want it to just have the beads I used and look endless.

How can I hide the ending?

How to Finish an Endless Necklaceby: Wanda

Randi,

Unfortunately, the ways that I would suggest that you finish your necklace are the very ways that you don't want to use to finish it.

I cannot think of, nor have I seen, a way to finish off an endless necklace that used beading wire, but no crimp bead.

With a necklace length of about 36 inches, the chances of someone else seeing the crimp bead are slim, especially if you use beads similar to it in your design.
